** To get an idea of just how good Kurt was. Wrestling/HulkHogan, Wrestling/StoneColdSteveAustin, Wrestling/JohnCena, and Wrestling/TheUndertaker, four of wrestling's biggest {{Determinator}}'s have all submitted to Kurt Angle. That's WWE's Mount Rushmore right there, and they've all tapped out to the Wrestling Machine.

* BewareTheSillyOnes: Kurt often has a very goofy demeanor as a performer that belie the fact that he is an Olympic medal winning shoot wrestler and one of the greatest pro wrestler technicians of all time. It's been suggested that Angle was more willing to have himself booked as a goofball than many other wrestlers in his position would've been because, while many of them were insecure about being made to be the butt of a joke, Kurt ''knew'' he was the best and all the fans knew he was too. He could never be made too ridiculous to take seriously, because no dumb comedy spot could damage him beyond the ability of a single amazing mat sequence to repair.

** The Hair vs. Hair match was Vince's idea, as Kurt's hairline was receding rapidly and he wanted Kurt to shave his head in order to look tougher.

Once Kurt stopped whining about it in Kayfabe, he inverted from a faux-manipulative goofball with occasional moments of brilliance into a serious competitor with occasional comedic moments. Going bald helped Kurt gain some presence as a fierce fighter since his hair enhanced his boyish facial features which made him look less like the serious killer in the ring that he was.
